Helping the Oji-san

It was a silent night, normally in this region there would be constant howls of the animals of the darkness, squeks rats make or sounds of scraping made by the woodworms.

That night the only thing making any noise was the wind, a sound that would make everyone have chills run through their spine. A chilly and a hissing sound as if a deadly viper was hunting for a prey.

At that very night, unknown to everyone Sun Ling soul crossed the world's to a small clan named Tang sect.

Although the clan was called a sect, it was far from it's previous glory. It was in a situation where only the descendants were it's disciples and no outsiders were being included in that group. Not beacuse the clan had such strict rules or such teachings but it just wasn't able to.

Sun ling crossed to a boy with the same name as his. He woke up and realised that he was in a bed, wrapped up from head to toe in bandages, the first thing that he thought was:

'Holy f*ck, so it really happened hahahahah!'

He remiscinded what happened to himself.

Sun Ling was an orphan, He was brought up in a orphanage run just by an old couple and sometime's a volunteer of some sorts. He wasn't living too bad of a life, there was food, roof above the head and people to spend time with, of course there were harder day's but never did he really complain. He went to highschool of an eletrician profile to quickly get a job and just start a life by working, he didnt want a job with high payment but a stable one, so just when he decide's to change the living place or even leave the country he could still get a job.

Sun Ling was a realist and was trying to use logic in his life as much as he could, as it is in itself a hard thing to apply in life, but He took it as a best way to be living. It may sound kind of profound or even that he's thinking too highly of himself to say He was pretty proficient at doing it but that's just the way He is. Always trying to think out of the box or looking at something from different perspective, of course it isn't easy and Ling himself didn't consider himself to be above other people by saying that they are stupid by not thinking about a thing other way or such.

Despite trying not to think through feeling's and being concerned more about logic thinking, Sun Ling still had a soft spot for poor beings as he knows what it means to be unable to change their fate or situation by themselves.

Sun Ling himself was a big cry baby before he changed his way's he would often be crying over even the smallest issues, he didn't like fighting and at any pressuring situation would cry, when he was 12 he pushed another boy and started crying just beacuse he done something bad to another person.

Later on he started watching anime and mostly it was just some stupid things or even typical big booby one's so middle schooler's can have first contact with something to be aroused to. But that's what changed him. Through it he may have distanced himself from other people as he spent most of the time watching it, but --he-- gleaned much of their essence and grasped how to interract with people what not to do, and what may be running through someone's head. It may sound half assed as it pretty much is, but what he learned was useful and made him as he is. Later on his only friend killed himself which was quite a blow, later on Sun Ling met a girl and confessed to her, she disn't reply immadietally and on the same day he started liking another one, later on the first one rejected him. He realised that a lot of his decision's are made by his unstable emotion's so He decided to try to seal them as much as He can. Later on after few year's he was able to be emotionless to most of thing's but knew that being sealed off completly is not the best option so still choose to show emotion's to other people as to not be kept out by being weird.

One day Sun Ling was going home from one thoose harder day's of work when he saw an old man with crutches and some daily necessary item's as rice and milk. He wanted to help him but He left his cat Li Lu with only little bit of food before he went to work as he had to spend 13 hour's there. He decided that if when He got out of the shop meant for buying food for pets and such things and doesn't see anyone helping old man, he will do it.

When Sun Ling got out of the shop Oji-san moved only about 30 meters in span of 10 minutes. Sun Ling while still going thought to himself

'Sorry Li Lu you will have to wait a little bit longer'

After that he asked:

"Oji-san do you need help?"

"Oh, young lad, thank you actually i live quite close could you help me get my things home?" ~said the man after seeing that the young guy that came didnt look suspicious but just tired.

"Sure, what's your name Oji-san?" ~said Sun Ling

"Bi Du"

Sun Ling on the way to home of Bi Du helped him carry his things and after 10 minutes arrived at his home. It was a pretty run down place with an unkept lawn that was of a span of a basketball court. When getting into the house there would be seen old antiques.

"You like collecting such stuff Oji-san?"

"Not really there's some that i like but most of them were passed in my family"

Answered Bi Du while looking as if he was lost in thought

'Well i guess i should leave, Li Lu is probably getting more and more hungry'

"Oji-san i have to go I still have some things to do"

Bi Du realised that he spaced out while thinking he smiled and said

"Let me pray to my ancestor for you'r kind deed, come with me so I can wish you luck and karma to pay you off, just lit up with me an incense stick"

Sun Ling thought that he already spent so much time so he might aswell do it as it wouldn't harm Him in any way or so.

Then they went into a different room there were portraits of elderly men and woman's in old fashioned like from edo period robe's, and right in the center above the little altar there was a portrait of an old man with dragon like eye brows executing an almost royal like feeling.

"Oji-san are thoose all are your ancestor's?"

Said Sun Ling feeling a little creeped out about the feeling that he got from this room.

"Yes, there were all amazing people with great wits and ideas, except this one here he always fooled around, and in my family teachings there was even a rule that when our whole family get's brought up together we gotta make fun of him"

Said the old man while smiling to hinself and continuing

"But im the last one so i can't follow this rule anymore, but let's pray, as you are probably not interested in this stuff, come quickly let's kneel."

Sun Ling felt bad for Bi Du as loneliness is the hardest foe to fight against but decided to listen to words of the old man and replied

"Sorry to hear that, ok let's pray"

That was when Bi Du started talking in some foreign language that Sun Ling couldn't even pinpoint where it could come from, and felt as it was chanting. In that moment he felt cold wind brush his back and heard another voice

"Bi Du my great grandchild, so have you finally decided to come?"

The voice was imposing and majestic, Sun Ling tried to stand up from kneeling and realised that he can't move. The voice continued.

"Hmm, who might be the youth that is by your side?"

Bi Du then hurriedly with respect answered.

"Ancestor this is the person I decided to give the chance for a different life as fate brought us together."

,,Are You sure? Remember there is no going back."

"Although I lived a long life i don't have too many acquaintances so I decided that fate will be the one to choose"

"Hmm very well, youth my name is Bi Duang and as I realise you don't understand what's happening, I traveled to this galaxy with my clan from an other world in order to seek shelter for them as I had to fight powerful enemies, now eons after that now most of them died and my clan went extinct and only the branch in this world remained i wanted to take Bi Du as last succesor to the land where I and him can die in peace as his soul is not able to have another life from scrach, but that doesn't apply to other people, so i told Bi Du that if he wants he can find one person to grant him this chance, it is a cultivation world"

,,So Young Lad what do you say at my offer?"

,, ... " ~Sun Ling couldn't even speak as the situation that he got himself in was just out of his mind to comprehend and accept that such a thing could happen to Him.

,,Well i can understand You can be shocked at the sudden course of action how about You tell me Your name first?"

,,Well, my name is Sun Ling, and yes the situation is quite schocking to me"

,,That is to expected of course, but let me get to the point as I don't have too much time.

First of all if You want I can make You have another life at the cultivation world, and second You can take another person with Yourself, only one. So about the first thing what do you say?"

,,I agree!" ~'My life would probably just be working sleeping and spending time between thoose two on the internet, games or other stuff so there's not much reason to stay in this world, and even if this is some really messed up tele-program, who would want to live such a boring life so they can laugh all they want I don't care.' thought to himself Sun Ling

,,And what about the second condition, do you want to take someone with Yourself?"

'I don't really have any true friends or realatives, the old couple from the orphanage are dead, my best friend killed himself, He said only one person so even if he can revive the dead I can't take them both should ask him regarding resurrection.'

,,Can You revive the dead?" ~asked Sun Ling with hope lingering on his face

,,Unfortunately I can't" ~Said Bi Duang

That's when Sun Ling made his decision and told the Ancestor of the Bi clan

,,I want to take my cat!"

,, ... " ~Bi Du

,, ... " ~ Bi Duang
